Description

Naia Seminario and co-authors study bladder recovery after major surgery for early cervical cancer in this 2025 paper. Removing the uterus widely can disturb the nerves that help the bladder empty, leaving urine behind. The team measured how long recovery took, what raised the risk of slow recovery, and whether an early reading could guide care.

They reviewed sixty-seven patients treated with two grades of surgery. The wider operation clearly slowed recovery: its patients took a median of two and a half days to empty well, against one day for the narrower grade. At discharge about a fifth still needed a catheter. The team proposes a simple plan: narrow-grade patients can skip a voiding trial, while wider-grade patients with a high day-one reading should keep the catheter longer.
